About Me

Well... Im sick of people using me to get what they want, advance themselves, or just tend to have a laugh at my expense, Im proud of the fact that Im a Nice Guy, and I just wish that people would respect that fact and be proud of me for it.
Right. Rant over.

Im living in nevilles cross now, Im living the life of riley (although my own life would also be good), I enjoy strange things, doing random stuff, and ridiculous overblown romantic gestures that inevitably end badly for me....Im also certainly a nerd at heart.
Yes, you will have no doubt seen me behind the counter at McColls newsagent in Durham bus station. Yes, I've probably sold you cigarettes, please dont happily rush over to me in the Angel to tell me that fact. I serve around 300 people every day... dont be suprised when I cant remember who you are....
To Be honest nowadays I do use facebook a lot more than myspace, but I do pop on to check from time to time.

My Interests

Anything interesting....

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who might appreciate a nice guy, not swiftly spin me round and jab a large stabbing implement into my spine.

Music:

Deep breath...... Motley Crue, Lacuna Coil, Motorhead, Within Temptation, Tripwire, Fun Lovin Criminals, Breaking Benjamin, Metallica, Alter Bridge, Backyard Babies, Lostprophets, Feeder, Electrasy, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Guns and Roses (Old stuff only, havent heard much of the new), All American Rejects, Lordi, Linkin Park (I dont care what others say, I like them) Papa Roach, My Chemical Romance (see linkin park) bloody loads of music i love. If it makes me think, Its all good.

Movies:

Dead Mans Shoes is my favourite right now.

Television:

Lost, Sharpe (I'll watch any of these when I see there on TV, Sean Bean is a fine actor, and a badass to boot) CSI (I'll watch all three, but Vegas is the best one) Firefly, Angel - In my opinion all Joss Whedon does is awesome.

Anything by Bill Bryson, most autobiographies (Notable ones - Michael J Fox, Mick Foley, Keith Moon, Lemmy, Motley Crue)

Vegeta, Optimus Prime, and Michael J Fox.... a... strange mix to be sure...
